Strawberries
Overview
Why eat strawberries?
Strawberries are one of the best vitamin C sources in the produce aisle, delivering 65% of the Daily Value per 100 g for only 32 calories. They also bring fiber, folate and the red anthocyanin pigments that give them their color, making them a sweet-tasting food that stays light on sugar and calories.
Good to know: Strawberries hold pesticide residues and moisture easily, so rinse them just before eating rather than before storing, which keeps them from turning mushy.
Exceptional vitamin C
At 58.8 mg per 100 g, or 65% of the Daily Value, strawberries support collagen formation, immune function and better absorption of iron from plant foods.
Fiber with few calories
Each 100 g provides 2 g of fiber for just 32 calories, which helps feed gut bacteria and slows how quickly sugars reach the bloodstream.
Potassium and folate
A cup of pureed strawberries supplies about 355 mg of potassium and 56 µg of folate, nutrients involved in blood pressure regulation and cell division.
